Just a disposition sunny; 
Just the wish to help another 
Get along some way or other; 
Just a kindly hand extended 
...Out to one who's unbefriended; 
Just the will to give or lend, 
This will make you someone's friend. 
Be a friend. You don't need glory. 
Friendship is a simple story. 
Pass by trifling errors blindly, 
Gaze on honest effort kindly, 
Cheer the youth who's bravely trying, 
Pity him who's sadly sighing; 
Just a little labor spend 
On the duties of a friend.
Be a friend. The pay is bigger 
(Though not written by a figure) 
Than is earned by people clever 
In what's merely self-endeavor. 
You'll have friends instead of neighbors 
For the profits of your labors; 
You'll be richer in the end 
Than a prince, if you're a friend...
